But really, flopping is ruining the game

At least he actually got touched by something, unlike Bosh who did the exact same thing with absolutely no contact.
I hate flopping. 100% Fraud and abusing the rules.

Damn those are some horrendous refs

...They were damn near wrestling in the paint and nothing was called. I understand that international basketball is supposedly more physical than the NBA but when you're literally SHOVING each other for position, it's no longer basketball

Haha, wow. Guy is gunning to get into movies. 

So, some of you more enlightened NTers help me out with this, since I never really understood...they're fully capable of reviewing pretty much any play with their replays, right? Why on Earth do they refuse to do anything about blatant flops? I'm not talking about those "maybe he overreacted a little" types of moments...I'm talking this kind of crap:

Come on man...people are right. It ruins the game.

^ They can't review any play http://www.nba.com/2008/n...eoreplayrules/index.html

Bosh would be the ideal 'skinny black wrestler' in WWF.

That ain't basketball man

Thanks SM, haven't seriously watched a ton of regular season games and stuff until the past year or so, and some of this stuff just seems silly. I thought they could review what's listed already - didn't know those were the absolute limits on reviews too.
I mean, they could treat them just like technical fouls or something...two total flops by one player in one game = booted. Don't need guys trying to win Oscars on the hardwood.

[|A-Man|]

Thought it was Gortat for a sec.

Reminds me of the Situation running in to the wall to avoid a fight with Ronnie

Son aint want no parts of a fight.

Seen that manu GIF somewhere else before pointing out a flop, but all i see is him losing his balance

 

[yallayalla]

i knew this would reach NT when i saw it last night

 

[luong1209]

BD + Robert Horry's flops >

 

[upptempo8387]

The NBA needs to follow suit of the NFL..In the NFL they give them unsportsmanlike conduct penalties for pretending to get pushed or w/e else between plays..NBA refs should be allowed to call techs for flopping when it's blatant..Obviously it's tough to determine a flop or not in an offensive foul/blocking foul situation, but sometimes you can clearly tell a dude was barely touched n then flopped

 

[sooperhooper]

Shh is pathetic.

at Reggie Millers lame @@@ talking about "you gotta sell it" shut up. I'm glad you never won a ring. This is a disgrace to the game. Chris Paul, Mo Williams, Chancy Billups, yes, I'm talking to you.

 

[miamib30514]

This !+@$ got me rolling

Perfect comedic timing on the flop.

Not to pick on you, but are you serious dude? What about your beloved Kobe Bryant and Pau Gasol?

this. 

Mick Pennisi's (the guy who flopped in the video) a nice dude, btw.

Well, that's professional basketball in the Philippines for you. 

 

[captainkicks]

They need to give out technicals for flops though.
